Pyrrolizidine is a heterocyclic organic compound. Formally, it is a saturated derivative of pyrrolizine.
Pyrrolizidine forms the central chemical structure of a variety of alkaloids known collectively as pyrrolizidine alkaloids.[http://www.genome.jp/kegg-bin/get_htext?htext=br08003.keg&filedir=%2ffiles&extend=A1&open=B10#B10 Pyrrolizidine alkaloids] at KEGG {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303182232/http://www.genome.jp/kegg-bin/get_htext?htext=br08003.keg&filedir=%2Ffiles&extend=A1&open=B10#B10 |date=2016-03-03 }} It is one of five classes of iminosugars. These are often synthesized from a carbohydrate.{{Cite journal|last=Lauritsen|first=Anne|last2=Madsen|first2=Robert|date=2006-07-19|title=Synthesis of naturally occurring iminosugars from D-fructose by the use of a zinc-mediated fragmentation reaction|journal=Organic & Biomolecular Chemistry|language=en|volume=4|issue=15|pages=2898–2905|doi=10.1039/B605818C|pmid=16855738|issn=1477-0539}}
